Fiskefrikadeller med Karry (Fish Cakes with Curry) for #Fishfridayfoodies)

WOW! another month has literally flown right by and it's time for Fish Friday Foodies again.  This month our hostess is Sue of Palatable Pastime and the theme this month is Fish for Good Friday. 

I've actually had a packet of cod pieces in my freezer and had been wanting to make some fish cakes from them.  I got inspired by a recipe at Piskeriset på eventyr  and then put my own spin on it as well.
I went to my Danish roots on this, cause I could and let's face it, Danes have a lot of great fish recipes.  My sister tells me they had these a lot in Denmark when she was younger, as you could go and purchase packets of fish parts relatively inexpensively.  I don't know if they still do that, but...

I didn't want to put curry into the fish cakes, but instead wanted to serve them with a curry sauce on top.  Curry sauces are quite popular in Denmark, and curry is added to a lot of recipes.  One of my favorites is this one, Karry Sild. 

 Finely chopped or minced cod.

So good.

This recipe is great, and just different enough that maybe you can feed this to the non-seafood lovers in your house.

Fiskefrikadeller or Fish Cakes are very common in Denmark.

Sauce

• 1-2 tsp. Curry Powder
• salt
• 1 tablespoon flour mixed with 1 tablespoon butter
• 1/2 cup milk
• Ghee and Olive Oil for frying

instructions:

1. Chop the cod into small pieces, using either a sharp knife or a food processor, making sure not to chop the fish too small, and remove any and all bones first.
2. Mix together the chopped fish, seasonings, egg and flour.  Place in fridge to set up for at least an hour. 
3. Heat the ghee and olive oil together and make small cakes of the fish mixture, and fry until golden on each side.  Serve with a dollop or more of the curry sauce on top and a salad for a complete meal.
